Abstract/Description
The convergence of funds and efforts of stakeholders is playing a crucial role in anchoring climate-resilient agricultural practices in the project states of Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and Bihar of India.
Most of the Centre and State-sponsored schemes of the Government of India work in a silo, addressing only a certain aspect of the problem instead of the complete problem. As part of the project, a new initiative was established to create a convergence platform for farmers, government officials, and other stakeholders to discuss, plan and implement government schemes in a participatory manner with Gram-Sabha being the participatory planning unit.
